The development and application of sports vision has never been as thoroughly reviewed and discussed as in this text. "Sports Vision" is dedicated to exploring the world of vision care and consultation designed to protect, correct, and enhance vision in an effort to make sports and athletic competition safe, enjoyable and more successful. Using evidence-based information, a task analysis approach is used throughout the book, ranging from an extensive review of the research on a topic and then breaking it down into the essential information and recommendations for clinical practice. The end result is a reference that addresses many questions arising regarding treatment procedures, expectations, and application to sport. Optometry practitioners and students as well as those in the fields of sports medicine, athletic trainers, ophthalmologists, and opticians will find valuable concepts and ideas presented in the text that can be applied to their practice.
